This book explores how demographic changes effect inter-generational transfers of time, money, goods, and services, which plays a role in the well-being of individuals and families. It details the nature and measurement of transfers, their motives and mechanisms, and their macro-level dimensions, especially in the context of demographic transitions. Coverage includes original empirical analyses of datasets from some twenty countries and extends the traditional analysis of inter-generational transfers by examining different types of transfers, namely goods, money, assets, time, co-residence and visits. It addition, the material in the book goes beyond the study of traditional parent - child transfers to examine transfers to kins and the bi-directionality of transfers. It will be of interest to demographers, public policy researchers and analysts, economists, sociologists, strategic planners.
